Hypnotized By A Strange Delight

.
The Playlist has a few images of Penn Badgley playing my beloved Nineties crooner Jeff Buckley in the upcoming bio-pic Greetings From Tim Buckley, as well as a video of Penn singing a cover of "Lilac Wine" in Brooklyn last week. I'd seen that this video existed the other day, but I remain too scared to watch it. Somebody watch it who loves Jeff too and tell me what to do!

Won't they likely overdub this? He is ok but nowhere near the beauty/power of Buckley's voice. But few people are to be fair.

He's decent, but (obviously) he'll never be able to encapsulate the emotion with which Buckley sang without it looking/sounding contrived.
